Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - Heavy Artillery

The Heavy Artillery slot includes the Flamethrower, Rocket Launcher, Heat-Seeking Rocket Launcher and the Minigun. All of these are heavy duty weapons that can cause a lot of destruction and mayhem.

FLAMETHROWER

CLIP SIZE

500 (about 50 seconds of constant flames)

The Flamethrower is a great weapon to use against large groups of enemies, as you can spray the flame very easily to hit multiple foes. When an enemy is caught on fire from the weapon, they will run away. Some of the few problems with this weapon is that you cannot move while firing and it's not good against vehicles.

LOCATIONS

Flint County - Next to some shacks, near the rail tracks

Flint Range, Flint County - Inside Helena's shed, after you start dating her

ROCKET LAUNCHER

CLIP SIZE

1 shot

The Rocket Launcher is your go to weapon when you want to deal with vehicles or large groups of enemies that are close together. The aiming reticule is not true to how it is fired and the blast radius can cause some problems in close quarters. Also, the blast causes fire, which can hurt you if you happen to run over it.

LOCATIONS

Downtown, Los Santos - On roof of building with large radio antenna (need flight)

Downtown, San Fierro - On helipad of San Fierro Police HQ (only during "Toreno's Last Flight")

Tierra Robada - In Toreno's ranch after completing "Vertical Bird"

HEAT-SEEKING ROCKET LAUNCHER

CLIP SIZE

1 shot

The Heat-Seeking Rocket Launcher is an upgraded Rocket Launcher that locks onto a target until it either hits it or gets out of range. It is best used on aircraft, such as police helicopters or planes, since it makes them much easier to hit. When you first aim, the targeting reticule is green; once it is red, then that means the target is locked.
